    This is my third Nest Hub 7" purchased within a year. I have one in the kitchen, another one in the home office and this last one for the bedroom. I like it available close by when I need it and having to see the response on screen over just listening to it.

    While the Amazon Echo 8 has more features including the ability to make video calls, the Nest Hub 7 does not bombard you with ads and needless stuff. I have both and while Alexa is my everyday assistant, having the Nest Hub is convenient for displaying my automation dashboard, viewing my next cameras, and filing in the holes that the Echo Show 8 leaves.

      Hi Ivory, we’re glad to hear that the Nest Hub (2nd gen) helps you control your smart home devices well. But it’s unfortunate that its performance has not exceeded your expectations.

      A range issue or wireless interference can affect the performance of your display. Sometimes it may pass the connection test during setup, but will struggle to stay connected if it’s just a bit too far away. You can try these simple steps below that might help:
      - Check your Wi-Fi network for possible congestion. Relieving some of your connected devices may help free up some bandwidth space.
      - Check the distance between the Nest display and your router. Ensure that it is within a line of sight from your router.
      - Check for wireless interference with other Wi-Fi hotspots or appliances and devices nearby.
      - Restart Nest display and router to refresh the connection.

    I bought the Nest Hub 3 weeks ago and is flawless! I love the clock display and also it gets ready when I get close to with the display. I haven't tried all the functions yet, but so far I like it. I am planning to buy another Nest Hub for my mom.

    The screen is very small so it's basically a digital clock and weather display. The google assistant support on it is awful. The same voice command works on the phone but not on the hub.

      Hello there, PeterY. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Nest Hub (2nd Gen). We appreciate you taking the time to express your concerns. We understand that size might not matter for everyone. If you're looking for a larger display for consuming video content, browsing the web, or playing games, other Nest products like the Nest Hub Max. We're sorry for the inconsistency you've experienced with Google Assistant on the Nest Hub (2nd Gen). It is unexpected that the same voice command wouldn't work on your devices. You can try to troubleshoot your device by ensuring both your phone and Nest Hub are connected to the same Wi-Fi network. You also need to check if the device software is up to date. If these steps don't resolve the issue, we recommend reaching out to our dedicated team of specialists on the Google Help Center here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Everyday there was a new issue and features not available. Couldn't do it anymore when it would ignore commands and features were removed. Nest community forum was full of similar complaints. Sadly I returned it.
